Answer:
The answer is the fourth option, 5.
Since you said men to women, there are 5 men in the dance recital and 6 women in the dance recital.
1. Look how the problem states. Ex: Ratio of men to women.
2. Look at the ratio. 5:48.
3. We know that there are 48 female performers at the dance recital.
So, there are 5 men at the dance recital.
Adding what rational expressions?
Distance = (rate)(time)
In this problem, note that both girls traveled the same distance.
Karens distance = r * 1.5 hrs we dont know her rate
Nancy distance = 50 * 1 hr we know she started 30 min later
but arrived at the same time
since the distances are equal
r*1.5 = 50 * 1 all you have to do is solve for r
1.5r = 50
r = 50/1.5
r = 33 1/3 miles per hour
